At the same time, museums ensure the preservation of museum objects and collections.

It is stipulated that the funds received by the state museums from paid services, charities and other sources should not be taken into account or reduced in determining the amount of funding from the budget for next year.

Currently, there are 116 state and 8 non-state museums in the country.
